The company I work for spend something like £8k a month on marketing (primarily online) as well as employing someone dedicated to writing blog posts and managing social media. From that we get 5-6k unique visits a month to the site which converts into about 2k leads. Off the top of my head I couldn't tell you what % then converts to sales.

We do have ALOT of lead generating opportunities throughout our site and social media.. (ie; free downloads in exchange for contact details, online quizes to win stuff. monthly like & share competitions. etc..).

It is, but I suppose its relative to the business. We sell adventure & teaching trips around the world with e-com stores in 5 currencies and the average spend is something like £750 so I guess it pays off?

*EDIT*
January is one of the company's biggest sales months. They spent something like £16k on January's marketing!!

Hi Dave,

Just curious I sent you a PM about teaming up, did you ever add me to your Skype etc?

Yes, I got your message and should have replied. I'm not currently taking on new clients so saw it as a waste of everyone's time entertaining the idea of new business relationships. Will be in touch should the need arise.
